Condition: DIP, PIP artrosis and / or podotrocleosis, |
Intolerance to: |
Works on surface |
Shoeing , trimming techniques |
e.g. single collateral ligament lesion , single lobe of distal DDFT.., single collateral ligament of Nav. |
Lateral or median elevation |
deep |
Narrow web shoe, beveled ground surface on the side of intolerance , wider ground surface on the opposite side, short hooves , short shoeing intervals. [fig.9] |
compact |
- flexible shoes ( e.g. Flaps, easy walker) .[ fig.10].
- strongly beveled ground surface ( outside rim) on the side of intolerance.
- Rockered ipsilateral toe shoe ( “ French rockered toe “).
- Full rolling motion shoes, slightly displaced towards the opposite side of the intolerance. Note:Short intervals do not leave heels too long / high, specially in the case of dorsal entheseophytes.
|
e.g. DIP artrosis artritis |
Lateral and medial |
deep |
- short, barefoot trim, well rounded borders not too much heel.
- Flexible shoes, short shoeing intervals
- Half round section shoes, tightly fit ( e.g. classic roller or eventer). [ fig.11].
|
compact |
- “French rockered toe” ( rocker goes from quarter over the toe to opposite quarter; heels stay flat.
- Half round section shoes.
- Full rolling motion shoes ( e.g. “rock n roll”, PG shoes ).[fig.12 a,b.]
Note: consider shock absorption ( aluminum, pads), keep shoeing intervals short , do not set the shoes too wide . |
e.g. NAV. Bursitis
Distal DDF tendonitis impar lig. Desmitis. |
Dorsal extension |
deep |
- rolled-rockered - set back- toe shoes.
- the same plus egg bar.
- Reverse shoeing. [fig.13].
|
compact |
- rolled-rockered toe.
- Blunt- set back toe, e.g. NBS or Sagittal.[fig.14,a,b]
- Aluminum square toed ( wear is faster in the toe between shoeing intervals).
- Shock absorbing pads, mild frog support pads ( test for sensibility of the frog area).
- Full rolling motion shoe’s with the ground area at the toe strongly beveled; the higher total thickness of the shoe permits an extreme rolled toe .
|
e.g. DIP arthrosis and podotrocleosis |
Dorsal extension and lateral and medial elevation. |
deep |
- Set back shoe (blunt toe) with beveled ground edges and egg bar.
- Palmar frog and sole support. ( less heel penetration).
- Full rolling motion shoe with heel bar. [fig.15]
|
compact |
- Full rolling motion shoe, with small central base, well set back.
- Shock absorbing pad if sensitive to hammer blows to the shoe, short shoeing intervals.
